One key limitation of our study is the lack of field testing results; A clear understanding about how good of a precision, recall and accuracy are needed for reliable automatic field testing is key area that needs to be explored in future. There is a lot of variation if one takes into consideration the different types of stains available, thick and thin blood smears, we plan to work on a method that'll be able to handle such variations. Such a model should focus on the morphology of the parasites and should be able to deal with the debris that are often found in images procured from the field. The key to developing such a model could be the use of appropriate pre-processing steps or using domain adaptation techniques like gradient reversal[1]}
